“It was a very cool experience. The water was choppy and made for an unpleasant boat ride (but that's beyond the divers'/instructors control). I was expecting a different kind of lunch instead of pasta and chicken nuggets, but then they didnt have to provide us with lunch and they did. I also wish the photos were included with the price of the excursion, (maybe increase the price of the excursion to include a shot or two). My husband got sick on the boat and the crew continued to treat him with some dignity, they handled that really well. My husband loved the experience despite getting sick and actually said it…”

“Amazing day spent with Engine and his team! Aimed at people who want to try scuba for the first time but equally as enjoyable for those who have dived before. An abundance of fish in a lovely diving spot. A tasty sandwich was provided for lunch as part of the experience. We also purchased some fries. Prices for snacks and drinks on board are more than responsible and nothing about the day is pushy. Paid extra for some underwater photos that we will now cherish forever. Couldn’t have enjoyed the day more!”
